If Amiibo make a shit ton of cash (which im sure they will) then the gamepad will have been justified on that alone.


That's a point. They'd have to add amiibo support to the pro controller...

and headphone support...

As well as spend a huge amount of time as resources patching many old Wii U games to not need the gamepad...

And render future system defining games that will never work without the gamepad, like Mario Make and Starfox U, purely a novalty...

And kiss goodbye to a chunk of indie support from tablet and phone games.
